The Bontrager hubs feature a reliable and durable DT Swiss 350 inner tube. The rims of this Bontrager Aeolus Pro 51 Disc TLR wheelset are suitable for both tubeless and folding tyres. Tubeless creates the lowest rolling resistance without an inner tube, and thanks to latex sealant, the tyre fills a hole when punctured. If you want the best aerodynamics combined with a reliable hub system, these are the wheels you are looking for!
• Bontrager Aeolus Pro 51 Disc TLR rear wheel
• Bontrager tubeless wheel tape
• Bontrager tubeless valves
Bontrager knows like no other that buying a new carbon wheelset or a new bike with carbon wheels is no small investment. That’s why Trek/Bontrager set up the Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty programme. This shows Bontrager’s complete and utter confidence in its products and their quality.
When do I qualify for the Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty programme?
You’ll automatically qualify for this programme after becoming the first owner of a Bontrager full carbon wheel and when you bought this after November 1, 2018 in our webshop or one of our brick-and-mortar stores. This also holds true for Bontrager full carbon wheels, which some Trek bicycles come with.
Note: This programme doesn’t include aluminium wheels with carbon rim construction, such as the Aura and the Aeolus Comp.
What does the Carbon Care Wheel Loyalty programme entail?
If your wheel gets damaged within 2 year after purchase, we’ll look at replacement or repair free of charge (excluding possible shipping costs). This can be damage as a result of crashing, but also by accidentally hitting the sidewalk.
How to submit my Bontrager full carbon wheel for repair or replacement?
You can rely on our stores or our webshop if you have a damaged wheel. As soon as we receive the wheel, we’ll ship it to Trek. Subsequently, Trek will decide what option to go with, depending on the type of wheel and the severity of the damage:
• Repairing the damaged rim (including spokes, decals, nipples where needed) and manufacturer’s rebuilding of the original hubs.
• A complete wheel replacement.

Top rims at a top price.
Great carbon rims, great value for money. Very satisfied with this set of rims, immediately give my bike a much sportier/aggressive look. At first I was afraid to choose 50mm high rims, due to the influence of crosswinds during my rides, but after a few rides with moderate to strong winds I can say that this has no influence. I also like the fact that it has DT-Swiss 350 hubs, which are very maintenance-friendly. Without tools, you can remove your cassette from the rim and then do your thing. The only downside with these hubs is that it has an 18t ratchet in it which means the noise in freewheel is not as loud (personal opinion) as some other models, but this is very easy to replace yourself to a 24t, 36t or even a 54t ratchet.
Pros & Cons

The all-rounder in this price range, with only downside being its weight
I am upgrading from my stock wheels to this all-round aero set. Apart from the expected visual boost, I was immediately surprised at how comfortable these wheels ride. With 28mm tyres on this set, I actually ride more comfortably than with 30mm on my old wheelset, I think because the internal width is so much wider and the tyres are also much wider now. Where the internal width brings comfort, the 31mm external width should also be completely in line with the aerodynamic trend towards wider wheels. The model is already some 3 years old though, and then you see that you can get significantly lighter wheel sets for the same price and depth these days. However, almost all alternatives had thinner internal and external widths, and in terms of maintenance, this Bontrager really seems to be a kilometre ahead. The DT Swiss 350 hubs, steel spokes, hooked rims, have been the standard for sooo long. And should things go wrong, you still have the 2-year replacement warranty through Trek!

Am very satisfied ! Nice for fast wheels.
Wheels are stiff and roll smoothly. Really an upgrade for me should have done much earlier, due to the height though a bit sensitive to wind.

5 / 5
Best upgrade for my bike
One of my better purchases for the bike, especially the increased comfort since the speed increased by 3-5 kmH was a fun side effect.
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Wonderful set at a good price.
After a few rides really feel like you are faster. Combined with a good bike you cut through the wind. The wheels come up to speed well and then stay on pace well. You feel they keep moving you forward. They feel tight and fast. Make sure you have wide tires to stay comfortable as well. These are my first deep wheels, but those crosswinds have affected me very little so I can stay relaxed. In short. Very happy with them.

Stiff so also a bit harder. But that's carbon.
